Sasha & John Digweed are a British DJ partnership formed through the progressive house scene of the early 1990s. Their joint mix albums include Renaissance: The Mix Collection, the Northern Exposure series and Communicate, releases known for long, carefully sequenced transitions between progressive house and trance. Their residency at Renaissance established the pair as a regular DJ team. They later held a monthly residency at Twilo in New York, where their extended sets became central to the club’s programming, before taking the Delta Heavy tour across North America in 2002. A reunion at The Social Festival in Kent brought them back to the same lineup in 2016. Their festival appearances have also included Coachella in California and Ultra Music Festival in Miami.
